Abstract

There are qualities to academic writing and publishing, and qualities to artistic practice and creative writing. These qualities offer a playfield for editorial and graphic opportunities.
This specialist course aims to shed light on this spectrum of opportunities, through articulating and discussing trends, showing cases, and discussing the integrity and possibilities in the works of participant students.

Objectives

The course offers a reference point for progressive publishing today, which will support guidance to approach work, addressing techniques to present approaches to form and content narration, on factures of the poetical and the political, of truth and fiction, of academic and non-academic knowledge and more. It will do so by looking at contents, editorial and graphic opportunities, as well as to balancing these in publishing. Participants will find support to approach their needs, by opening a bandwidth and tolerance in editorial, graphic and publishing opportunities.
